1.1.1 This Malaysian Standard specifies the requirements and gives recommendations for siting and fixing of gas meters up to 40 m3/h rating, meter controls, meter regulators, filters and connections and subsequent termination of supply for gas at inlet pressures to meter not exceeding 35 kPa. This standard applies to installations supplied with natural gas and LPG installations supplied through pressure distribution systems up to and including 35 kPa.
Provisions for service pipes and regulators are dealt with in MS 830 and MS 930.
1.1.2 Attention is drawn to the fact that the installation of gas meters is covered by the Gas Supply Act 1993 and Gas Supply Regulations 1997, and persons using this standard should therefore be fully conversant with those regulations.
